Options for Breast Reconstruction, The Woodlands, Conroe, Kingwood, Cypress, NW Houston

There are two major categories for breast cancer reconstruction:
(1) implant-based and
(2) using your own tissue (autologous).

There are pro’s and con’s to each reconstructive modality. No one reconstruction is the best. Both implants-based and tissue-only autologous reconstruction provide outstanding results. It is important to tailor a reconstructive plan that meets the goal of each individual patient. Dr. Basu or Dr. Kim will advise you on your best options based on your goals, your cancer care plan, and your anatomy.

The Center for Advanced Breast Restoration’s philosophy to breast reconstruction is much more than just a chance to have some form of breast mound after mastectomy. Breast reconstruction can be an opportunity for women, not only to restore oneself as best as possible before their cancer diagnosis, but reconstruction can also provide an opportunity to enhance.

We can tailor the reconstruction and symmetry procedures to meet the goals of each individual patient whether it be to have an breast enlargement, breast reduction, or a rejuvenating breast lift. Remember, all mastectomy reconstructions and other breast symmetry procedures are NOT considered cosmetic surgery – these procedures are covered by your insurance – as dictated by federal law.

The insurance specialists at the Center for Advanced Breast Restoration will work diligently to advocate for your case to make sure your insurance covers your entire reconstruction process.
